My office contacted United Metals inquiring about picking up some tin from a job site in Boise. We were quote one price and what they paid after we badgered them for 2 months was 70% less than what the had quoted us on the phone. An absolute con! We'll never do business with them again.

These folks are honest, hardworking, and humble at every level. At some point leadership instilled in them the desire to serve the customer and help where ever they can. It really shows. I've been working in industry for quite a while, and the "normal" attitude of folks at other places is "I've earned the right to treat you with contempt". UMR folks are the total opposite. You can drive up with what ever aluminum or metal you have and they will help you out immediately and give you cash!I recycled some aluminum rims that were good, but just so ugly i needed them gone. Also dropped off a blown Subaru engine. These folks weighed them and gave me cash.I'll use them from now on. Gather your metal junk and go to them as well.

The staff was very helpful and kind. From telling me what to do, where to go in the yard and helping me unload my trailer. Also them being open on Saturdays is AWESOME!!!!!! I drove from Caldwell. So I could properly get rid of my stuff and not send it to the land fill.

I was so impressed with how I was treated and how organized this recycling center is that I had totell the manager how happy and impressed that i was. Of all the recycling centers that I have been in, this place by far has been the best ever. On a scale of 1 < 10, they rate a 20. I felt like a VIP and they made sure that I got the most for the different types of metal I brought by helping me sift through the different metals. Thank you guys so much for being so kind and efficient.Very Happy CustomerRick Frandin

Just wanted to give a quick shout-out out to this awesome local business. I do customer service for Junk Holler, and we use these guys multiple times a week. They are easy to deal with, and best of all, save us dump fees and help keep Idaho green by recycling. Can't go wrong with United Metal!

Our company, Ridge Industrial Salvage, contracted United Metals for recycling on a large demolition project (Fortune 500 Company facility). We could not be more pleased with United Metals professionalism, superior pricing, and outstanding trucking service. We are a national industrial contractor and have never experienced pricing or service as exceptional as we got from United Metals! Whether you have small quantaties of metal to deliver to their yard or hundreds of tons to be trucked and processed (contact Nick Snyder) you will be amazed by their pricing and service. Great job guys!!

Quick, Knowledgeable, and Courteous. These guys really know their stuff, and were readily able to answer all of my questions. Came in just before closing and they were still more than happy to help. I did not feel rushed at all, but they still got me in and out of there quickly. Definitely recommend this place to anyone.

In the last few years I have gone with United Metals exclusively, three to four times a month, with all my scrap. I've done business with nearly all of the other yards in Boise and I won't go anywhere else. Prices are the best in town, the guys really know the business and are always efficient and helpful. They go out of their way to make each visit a positive experience. They once came to my rescue with a can of gas after I sputtered to a stop out in the yard. (Thanks again!) I can't think of even one negative thing to say about United Metals. I look forward to working with them in the future and would recommend them to anyone looking to do a scrap of recycling.

Had a bunch of scrap metal from re-roofing my house like old gutters, trim, plus old cast iron pipes, car parts, etc. They were very friendly and helped me offload it from my truck. I didn't ask for any recycle money. They saved me the charge and time the landfill would have charged me.

Incredibly friendly service from the guys working there! It was our first time recycling copper and they helped us through the whole process. We will most definitely come back with more. (Bonus- they’re open on Saturdays!)
